McEwen tops defending champion in sprint

Robbie McEwen (RadioShack) took victory on the opening stage of the Circuit Franco-Belge after he outsprinted last year’s overall winner Adam Blythe (Omega Pharma-Lotto) in Péruwelz. Germany’s Rudiger Selig (Leopard Trek) was third.

It was McEwen's second success in the Walloon region of Belgium, after a stage in the Tour de Wallonie earlier this year.

The Australian chalked up his victory not to his usual explosive sprint, but to a continuous acceleration to the line. He will start the second stage in the race leader's jersey, but said it isn't necessarily his goal to take home the overall victory.

"The overall victory is not the main objective here as we came for stage wins, but you never know," McEwen said. "Most important is that I get ready for Paris-Tours, my last objective of the season."

The stage was marked by a three-man breakaway featuring Ronan Van Zandbeek (Skil-Shimano), David Lelay (Ag2r-La Mondiale) and Jonathan Dewitte (Wallonie Bruxelles-Credit Agricole). The trio broke clear after 55km and quickly built up a six-minute lead before the peloton began to whittle away at their advantage and swallowed them up on the run-in to the finish.

In spite of a flurry of attacks in the finale, it all came down to a bunch sprint, and the veteran McEwen proved too quick for Blythe in the finishing straight to take the spoils on day one.
